Abstract

Reading by Osmosis. Nature Interprets Man' shows works of art that are not made by human hands: an overgrown fence, an underwater video and a battered disco ball. The makers? Ivy, an octopus and time. If we acknowledge that animals and plants, too, can 'read' the world and interpret and 'artistically' transform it, is the traditional opposition between culture and nature still tenable? Sema Bekirovic does not identify with the image of artists as lonely geniuses. Rather, she places little value on her own contribution to her work and shares her authorship with coots, warmth or light. Reading by Osmosis is the provisional high point of this process. As a rule, the intention and the autonomy of a maker are inextricably linked to their artistry. Reading by Osmosis raises the question of whether making art is a process as unintentional and plantlife-like as, for example, osmosis. The book includes the essay 'On Art as Planetary Metabolism', in which philosopher Michael Marder expounds his theory about the artist as a plant (and vice versa) in a surprising way.

Abstract

"Most of us view animals through a very narrow lens, seeing only bits and pieces of beings that seem mostly peripheral to our lives. However, whether animals are building a shelter, seducing a mate, or inventing a new game, animals' creative choices affect their social, cultural, and environmental worlds. The Creative Lives of Animals offers readers intimate glimpses of creativity in the lives of animals, from elephants to alligators to ants. Drawing on a growing body of scientific research, Carol Gigliotti unpacks examples of creativity demonstrated by animals through the lens of the creative process, an important component of creative behavior, and offers new thinking on animal intelligence, emotion, and self-awareness. With examples of the elaborate dams built by beavers or the lavishly decorated bowers of bowerbirds, Gigliotti provides a new perspective on animals as agents in their own lives, as valuable contributors to their world and ours, and as guides in understanding how creativity may contribute to conserving the natural world. Presenting a powerful argument for the importance of recognizing animals as individuals and as creators of a healthy, biodiverse world, this book offers insights into both the established and emerging questions about the creativity of animals."--
